The objective of this paper is to decide optimal of the slot angle to minimize stress concentration in rotating disc of diamond saw. The fracture phenomena of the slot are discussed by the theoretical and experimental approaches and then some recommendation are presented to prevent the fracture. The focus of this investigation is to evaluation the effect of the slot on stress distribution using optimum design technique and finite element method(FEM) analysis. Stress concentration of the slot with respect to the various parameter of the slot such position, size, number, rotation speed. From the experimental results, when the slot angle of diamond saw is located $8^{circ}~12^{circ}$ from rotating direction, the maximum equivalent stress reduces.
